Quick!

Sorry about another dog in snow shot but I liked the action! @helenmoss's dog Storm in hot pursuit. They don't get long doing this because it tends to end in tears! Quick techy question - the Auto WB made this really blue - what's the best setting for snow? Cheers.
PS Taken near Elmdon (near Duxford) - loads of walks round there and the Elmdon Dial is VERY dog-friendly & does great food.
..on my lumix there is a dedicated snow setting.. and some options on the AWB setting to slide blue to red.. would imagine your top notch shooter will hve these options.. could be RTFM time my dear..

PS.. this is top dog action

@sleepdozer57 I've only got as far as focussing the view finder!!

Ha ha Monty's definitely going to get it there. My camera's got a snow setting too. But you can edit the blue down later which I presume you did...
February 9th, 2012  
Oh no this is funny. The chase!

Superb action shot. Great focus.
February 9th, 2012  
What an awesome motion shot!! Well done!
February 9th, 2012  
awww... great action shot!!!!
February 9th, 2012  
love the action...
February 9th, 2012  
Fab action shot! :-)

Loving the motion you've captured. Monty's ears are fantastic!

Ro
Awww! You can see them running around.

Brill action shot!
February 9th, 2012  
Awesome action shot!
February 9th, 2012  
Great action shot :)
February 9th, 2012  
they look like they're having fun

Wow, great action shot!!! Storm looks a bit ferocious on this pic though.
From what I remember of my last snow shots (a year ago), "daylight" works well but gives a pretty cold (bluish) pic, and "cloudy" was my favorite. The pics looked warmer than in the reality, but I liked the tones.

Ha, brilliant action shot! My P&S has a snow setting and I have to say my DSLR does quite well on auto WB, so can't really help that much
February 9th, 2012  
I love this. What a pair ears and all. Great capture of them in motion
February 9th, 2012  
Don't apologise for the 'other dog' - they are great fun pair and I think the two of them combine to make an endearing picture.

Great shot Judith. Love the action in it.
February 9th, 2012  
It's a great action shot - is this with the new camera?
February 9th, 2012  
They are both very serious about their jobs - Storm is quite the herder, and Monty is all about the play! Lovely shot! I have to edit when I shoot in snow as my point and shoot has only one setting! But we haven't had much snow to speak of., so it's rather moot this year.
February 9th, 2012  
I agree with Barbara. Storm wants to round up and Monty is all full of joy for running free. Great capture of different dog spirits
February 10th, 2012  
Fabulous action shot, Judith! If Monty could see the look in Storm's eyes he'd still be running! :)
February 10th, 2012  
Looks like they are having a blast.
February 10th, 2012  
They look like they are having a great romp! Nice action shot. I don't remember shooting in snow....because we never seem to have any this year. :-(

Brill dog motion capture.
February 10th, 2012  
You are doing well with the new camera Judith !!! Love this action shot & the smiling faces of both dogs !!
February 10th, 2012  
Great doggy fun. Exuberance captured.
February 10th, 2012  
great shot of the two of them - I tried the snow setting an went back to programmable
February 11th, 2012  
Great action shot! AWB worked for mine last year (haven't had proper snow this year). Sorry I can't be of any help beyond that!
February 12th, 2012  
It's always fun to watch dogs frolicking in the snow!
February 12th, 2012  
well done for getting this great shot while the dogs were going crazy like this. I'm afraid Storm gets a bit carried away and forgets he's three times Monty's size and what he thinks of as a playful nip could take poor Monty's leg off!
February 12th, 2012  
@helenmoss Well Monty's got smile on his face!! Unlike me as I've just found my pink glove under the table with bits missing...and it's survived being lost umpteen times only to get mauled....
February 12th, 2012  
Great action shot! My compact camera has a 'snow' setting, but my DSLR doesn't. Some of my shots do come out with a blue balance, and I could adjust it in Photoshop, but sometimes I think the blue enhances the image, giving a sense of coldness..
February 12th, 2012  
Love this photo of the dogs having a good romp,great action shot, shame about your glove !
